You can use an organization hierarchy to define the source company and target companies for master data distribution. To be able to use an organization hierarchy for master data distribution, set up a company of type 'Hierarchy' and link the organization hierarchy to it.

Note: Make sure that each legal entity in the organization hierarchy is set up as a master data management company as well. This is required because of the company-specific data steward setup.

Standard procedure

1.	Click Master data management - Setup.
2.	Click the Companies tab.
3.	Click New.
4.	In the Type field, select 'Hierarchy'.
5.	In the ID field, type a value.
6.	In the Organization hierarchy field, enter or select the desired organization hierarchy.
7.	Close the page.
